Thanks for both of your replies.

Yes, I am cutting out everything (most) white; refined foods, bread, sugar, etc. Until now I have been eating these in moderation.

Trying to eat mostly low sugar fruits and vegetables and once in a while, lean meat, e.g., chicken, pork, and fish.

By more expensive I meant that the Wahls Protocol advocates local vegetables, meat and fish. This would be almost impossible for me, geographically and financially.

We have Sprouts where I live; this is where I purchase most of my fresh vegetables, fruit, etc.

I rarely eat processed food.

Admittedly, I do bake cookies from scratch occasionally, which are now history.

Again, I appreciate the feedback from this group, immensely!
